Has anyone had any success running MSFS2020 on Linux (sh.itjust.works)

The only thing keeping me pinned on Linux is my Flight Simulator setup, where I main MSFS2020 alongside several add-ons. Has anyone here been able to get a functioning setup off of windows with this game? Would love to finally ditch the windows partition once and for all.

Did you fly with any mods? I usually run with a VA, so I'm flying the PMDG 737 or the Fenix, plus the tracking software. Guess I'll just have to go ahead and take a Crack at it myself

I can't remember everything I was running, but for sure had some mods and they all worked. Off the top of my head: FlyByWire A32NX, TBM improvement, Citation improvement, Navigraph, and various others.

Getting Navigraph position tracking working was a little annoying. You have to install it in the wine prefix, then run it after the game starts so that it can share the same wine session. I took some notes on the auth part of that setup, but I'm not sure if that's improved since I last used it. Let me know if you (or anyone else) runs into problems there.
